The Syracuse offense will feel the pressure when Rutgers visits the Carrier Dome Saturday.

In three games this season, The Scarlet Knights defense has 12 sacks, and is averaging a sack every 7.7 pass attempts.

"They are a team right now that is on fire defensively. We have so many different challenges ahead of us with these guys, and it's not just because they are good athletes and good players, it's a lot because of their scheme. We've had a lot of different teams that have pressured us just throughout these past four games, and we weren't expecting the pressure. This week we will be expecting the pressure, because they pressure on tape right now well over 50 percent, and when we talk about pressure, they bring everybody, and they come fast," Syracuse offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett told TK99's Gomez and Dave Friday.

Last season, the Rutgers defense got to Orange quarterback Ryan Nassib, sacking him 6 times. That's something they are hoping for again.

But according to Hackett, getting Nassib out of his comfort zone will be a tough thing to do.

"The great thing about Ryan is, he's not uncomfortable anywhere and that as a coach, you get really excited about that, and I've really tried to put him through every bad situation possible," Hackett said.

The Orange and Scarlet Knights kick off at noon in the Carrier Dome. The game will be on The Big East Network.
